Joining me is a Mixergy listener. I’ve interviewed his co-founder and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to interview him in South Africa.

Mark Forrester is someone who created a plugin for WordPress. It turned a platform for blogging into an online store. For free.

I want to find out how the company was built and eventually sold to the company that created WordPress.
